Very charming hotel in a GREAT location. Sorry of not providing a reasonable supply of complimentary drinking water, everything else was great
Excellent staff. They helped us with train scheduling during a national train strike. Great breakfast and great location. Plenty of places to eat and walkable to just about everything. Highly recommend this hotel. Oh yes it is quiet and the air conditioning works very well.

We loved our room at Il Rivalta.
Excellent central location with a spectacular view over the Arno.
Plenty of shelf space throughout the room. Large bathroom with a comfortable jacuzzi.
Great breakfast selection, and a nice restaurant for dinner to top it off.
The room size and river view were excellent. The bathroom/shower was amazing and very spacious. My only comment is that the furniture in our room was dusty

This was probably the best hotel I have ever stayed in. It felt so luxurious, clean, and beautiful. You can tell they really take pride in the property. The breakfast was delicious and the staff was top notch!
This place is amazing. There is 24/7 receptionist, the rooms are clean and modern. Windows can open to allow the beautiful fresh air in, and the breakfast was always fresh and delicious. Best of all, most of the places are walkable. If not, you can walk to the train station. Will definitely be staying again
The hotel is extremely charming and in a fabulous location on the river Arno one block from Ponte Vecchio. Breakfast was fresh with good variety of eggs and meats and cheeses and lots of pastry and cereal. Also the coffee of course does not disappoint.

Such a beautiful and cool property!! The location was fantastic and the staff was really nice. We stayed in a king room, and the high ceilings and large open room was such a luxury. The room and bathroom were very clean, and the lighting in the bathroom is good too. The hotel is right along the river, and there are many restaurants and shops an easy walk away. We are so happy with our choice to stay at this property for our stay in Florence. We would highly recommend this hotel, and in fact I already recommended it to a friend who will be in Florence this summer!
